BOXING Day sales are here and today is considered one of the biggest global shopping dates in the calendar.
Millions of shoppers will be flocking to the high street to get their hands on discounted fashion, tech, homeware and more.
We’ve listed some of the best bargains we’ve found today
It comes after several major retailers including Ikea, The Range and Amazon slashed their prices ahead of Boxing Day sales.
Post-Christmas sales can be a great time to bag some end-of-year bargains and most shops take part.
If you’re just looking to take advantage of some major savings, there are lots to choose from.
Remember to write a list in advance, and always compare prices ahead of the sale to ensure you get your coveted items for the very best price.
And just because something is on offer, or is part of a sale, it doesn’t always mean it’s a good deal.
There are plenty of comparison websites out there that’ll check prices for you – so don’t be left paying more than you have to.
Most of them work by comparing the prices across hundreds of retailers.
Google Shopping, Price Spy and Idealo all let you compare the prices of products across a number of retailers to make sure that you’re not getting caught out.
If you are shopping online, just remember to factor in delivery costs on top of the price of your item.
We’ve rounded up the best festive bargains from retailers including Amazon, Argos, Boots, Currys and John Lewis.
